alert ("hi challenger! please press ok and tell me youre name");
var a = prompt("so your name is? ", " to be honest! I FORGOT!")

</script>

<script language="text/JavaScript">

var a="null";
function check()
{

</script>

<tr>
<td width="100%" height="267" valign="top"><b><font size="7" face="Arial">Level 1</font></b><p> </p>
<div align="center">
<center>
<table border="1" cellspacing="1" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" width="15%" id="AutoNumber4">
<tr>
<td width="100%">

</form></p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

No way. At least not 100% in a secure way. Javascript is a client-side language, thus the code is to be seen by the user, a way or another. Easily enough for an average coder to decipher whichever you might have ciphered.

JavaScript was not invented for this kind of job. Use a server-side solution for that.

Actually this can and has been done. See http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/sh...41&postcount=1

It works by encrypting your protected content with a thoroughly tested and secure algorithm, which even the world's best cryptographers can't break.

Enjoy!
